As many as 11 private travel buses were booked by in a special drive, conducted by the officials of the Transport Department, in the district on Monday as part of the State-wide drive on vehicles plying without payment of taxes.
Deputy Transport Commissioner G.C. Raja Ratnam said in a statement that five buses were seized for non-payment of taxes. He said that some operators, who have not paid the taxes and failed to obtained permits, were entering into arguments with the officials and warned that cases would be booked against such operators in the respective police stations.

The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
